While Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie is about to walk down the aisle in less than a week, reports claim that they have recently argued over Scientology.
This is not the first time for the soon-to-be husband and wife to discuss the matter.
According to Star magazine, the 'World War Z' actor is deeply interested with the controversial religion. He even approached his wife just to elaborate its benefits.
The 'Salt' actress is firmed with her decision not to get her kids involved in the seemingly complicated group.
Brad Pitt's fascination with the Church of Scientology allegedly came from his friendship with neighbor Giovanni Ribsi who is one of the church's devotees:
"In early August, she flipped out on him after finding some Scientology recruitment brochures, probably left behind after one of Giovanni's visits. Brad suggested she casually read through them, but Angie tossed them in the trash and furiously told Brad she didn't want any of 'that kind' of material in their home," claims an insider.
The future Mrs. Pitt fears that the religion will only mess up their relationship and in turn affect their six children. It is likewise not a secret that the same religion is the root of the highly-publicized divorce of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
Believers of the couple's family hope that the two will find a way to attain what they want without losing respect for each other's decision.

John Travolta: ‘Scientology has the answers to drugs & detoxifying the body’
Before I even get into this latest cult propaganda, let’s review the fact that at least nine people have died in drug treatment centers run by the “church” of Scientology. Scientology runs dozens of drug treatment facilities under the misleading name “Narconon.” The treatment they offer is a front for Scientology, and is ineffective at best and deadly at worst. In just nine months, three people died in a single Narconon facility in Oregon, which was not state licensed. Former executives at the rehab came forward to say that the facility was committing fraud, required no traditional drug training for staff, and regularly preyed on vulnerable families of addicts.
So just keep all that in mind when you see John Travolta enthuse about the effectiveness of Narconon. There’s a clip from Entertainment Tonight above and the text is below. John made the speech at a big party over the weekend at the Scientology Celebrity Centre. Among the other celebrities who attended were Jenna Elfman, Laura Prepon and Parenthood’s Erika Christensen. ET interviewed Erika after John’s speech and she parroted all his talking points.
Travolta: The Celebrity Center is a place where I’ve come to since 1975 for all sorts of reasons, but it’s my oasis in Hollywood. This year in particular I just had a message I wanted to give to the industry. So tonight for the first time ever I spoke up. Impromptu. It was not a prepared speech.Kelly Preston then enthused a little about her son, Ben, two and a half. She looked a little tipsy but she wasn’t wasted or anything. I had a hard time figuring out if she’d had too much to drink or if that was just Xenu talking.
[Travolta on the pulpit] We’ve lost way too many artists to drugs. There’s people that are looking for solutions, and their solutions are drugs, and that I understand completely, but when you have a program that is designed to help you solve your problems different, but more importantly immediately getting you off of drugs, cleaning your body of the adverse effects of those drugs and then getting a new start.
It’s not just a detox program, it’s a detox program that takes full responsibility for the reasons you started to begin with. I don’t want to lose any more artists, it’s too much already.
Erika Christensen: What Jon said is so easy to grasp, we all have the same idea. There’s too many people that we’ve lost. It’s got to the point in the last several years that it’s such an alarming rate. The fact that there are answers to these problems and we can stop this from continuing to happen is really important to get that known.
Travolta: Something needs to be done about all the artists we’re losing to drugs because I’m tired of it. We have in Scientology the answers to drugs. We have the answers to the solutions people use them for. We have the answers to detoxifying the body after the extreme use of them. Celebrity [centre] sounds like an oasis for all artists. In a very hectic town… you have a place to get relief if you need it. It’s a place for solace and for knowledge….
Kelly Preston: I think Celebrity Centre is an amazing place for artists to come to handle anything they want in their life. To gain tools to better their life in every single aspect. I have done the purification program here, detox, I have gotten tools as an artist. I have handled things in my life that I was wondering about or that I was having really difficulty with.
These celebrities sounded pretty desperate to get other “artists” to join their cult. The word has been out for years that Scientology robs their members blind, uses forced labor, splits apart families, imprisons people who want to leave, and tries to destroy the lives of anyone who dares question anything that leader Miscavige does. They’re surely hard pressed for members, not to mention high profile ones. Listen to Kelly and John shill hard for the cult. So where was Tom Cruise at this shindig? Where was Kirstie Alley?

Are Scientologists still watching Katie Holmes? Star's security guards ask photographers on movie set if they're working for controversial church
By SARA NATHAN

A list star Katie Holmes's security guards are on the look out for Scientologists who may be watching her a year after her divorce from Tom Cruise, photographers have revealed.
Photographers on the set of Katie's latest film Miss Meadows in Cleveland, Ohio, on Monday morning were approached by a plain-clothed guard, who then asked if they had been dispatched by the controversial church.
The guard allegedly said the actress's security detail had been told to 'keep our eyes open for anything suspicious and to report it', according to one photographer.
Once reassured of the photographers’ credentials, Katie's six-strong security team appeared to relax and the star chose to walk the short distance from base camp to movie set, abandoning her usual routine of being driven there in a heavily blacked out SUV.

Katie has been spotted with her seven-year-old daughter Suri on set and the photographer added: 'When security knew we were only trying to take pictures it definitely seemed to make a difference to how she and Suri are moving around.
'Katie was previously being ushered straight into a vehicle and we hardly saw her, but now she seems less anxious.'
When asked if Katie's security guards were keeping a vigilant eye out for Scientologist spies, her spokeswoman insisted 'this isn't true.'
Burly protection officers have imposed a virtual ring of steel around the film beauty for the last fortnight as she shoots her new movie with co-star James Badge Dale.
In the film, Katie plays a 'well-mannered substitute teacher on a mission to rid her community of evil predators,' according to The Wrap. James Badge Dale plays a town sheriff who falls for her.
Last summer, website TMZ.com reported how several 'mysterious' men in cars had been spotted waiting outside Katie’s apartment and following her while out and about in New York amid her shock split from Tom Cruise.
A white Cadillac Escalade and black Mercedes SUV were seen outside her home, however Gary Soter, a lawyer for the Church, then insisted that the Scientology movement is 'not following Katie or conducting surveillance on her in the wake of her divorce with Tom Cruise'.
Movie heavyweight Cruise, 51, has been a devout spokesman for the church since 1990, later enlisting his wife and daughter into the ranks.

But it’s believed these religious ties ultimately led to the couple’s bitter divorce last summer when Katie refused to let Suri grow up under its shadow.
Scientology came back under the spotlight last month after another of its celebrity advocates Leah Remini quit the church after 30 years.
The King of Queens actress had endured 'years of interrogations' for questioning its leader David Miscavige, according to sources.
The rift began when she allegedly asked about the absence of his wife Shelley at the wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes in 2006, where Mr Miscavige was best man.
The question allegedly prompted an immediate backlash from former head of the Scientology Celebrity Center Tommy Davis.
Divorced: Katie Holmes stunned Tom Cruise by filing for divorce after five years of marriage in July 2013. The couple are seen here in March 2011 in Beverly Hills, California
After leaving, mother-of-one Leah said she was 'not about to shut up.'
'We stand united, my family and I, and I think that says a lot about who we are, and what we're about,' she told People magazine.
'I believe that people should be able to question things,' Remini explained. 'I believe that people should value family, and value friendships, and hold those things sacrosanct. That for me, that's what I'm about. It wouldn't matter what it was, simply because no one is going to tell me how I need to think, no one is going to tell me who I can, and cannot, talk to.'
She adds, 'It doesn't matter, it could be anything. I thought about the family being broken up for some other cause, and I'm not about to shut up.'
Since making the move to leave the Church of Scientology, Leah has reached out to thank her fans and colleagues for their support in her decision to leave - and is now believed to have signed up for the new season of ABC's Dancing With The Stars.
MailOnline has contacted the Church of Scientology for comment.
